This study was conducted to evaluate the efficacy of thyme oil in suppressing Alternaria alternata (Fr.:Fr.) Keissl in vitro and in vivo as fumigant and contact treatments. Thyme oil possessed great fumigant and contact toxicity against A. alternata at different concentrations in vitro. Irreversible inhibition of fungal growth could be caused by exposure to 500 μL/L thyme oil as a fumigant for 6 and 12 days. The spores of A. alternata were completely suppressed 6 h after incubation in potato dextrose broth (PDB) by 2000 μL/L of thyme oil. The thyme oil as a fumigant at 66.7 μL/L showed a significant inhibition effect on A. alternata of cherry tomatoes stored at 25 °C for 5 days. Thyme oil at 500 μL/L showed a significant contact inhibition effect on A. alternata of cherry tomatoes stored at 25 °C for 3 days.
